Desert storm floods Desert Water Aqueduct in Baja California

Severe storm debris clogged the Colorado River Aqueduct near Desert Hot Springs flooding southern California water supplies. A 2500-pound lid was ripped off a pumping station and four to six feet of debris blocked the aqueduct, forcing shut down of five pumping plants and sparking talk of possible mandatory rationing if repairs run long. Long Beach officials noted half of its water comes from the MWD and expected repairs within a week.

The House approved a energy package aligned with Carter, and two energy bills on nuclear safety and oil spills moved forward.
